I can't recall all the exact details, but there is some validation logic in place along the lines of "if there's a wildcard domain installed then newly added subdomains must be on the same account as the wildcard's owner". You could give it a shot, but I don't think this attack would work.

(I used to help maintain the system responsible for this, but don't work there anymore.)
